Patriots Back on a Roll


Back to some NFL... Tom Brady and the Patriots put on another good performance Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles. Brady threw for 361 and 3 TD's, two of them to the big tight end, Rob Gronkowski. After going down 10-0 early, the Patriots battled back and ended up winning the game 38-20. The defense looked good, the offense looked great. The Patriots are still in the hunt for that first seed in the AFC Playoff picture with an 8-3 record that leads the AFC East.
Tom Brady just went nuts in this game. He can throw all over the field to any receiver he wants. Gronkowski is a dominant force in the redzone as well. And with quick guys like Deion Branch, Wes Welker, and Aaron Hernandez, Brady has no problem marching down the field on teams. I think this team has got it all, as long as their defense is playing well. I'm excited to see how well they will play in the playoffs. Right now, Belichick and New England are my SuperBowl pick. I know everyone is crazy about the Packers, but I haven't seen GB beat a very good team yet. I don't know if their defense could handle the explosiveness of the Patriots offense if these teams end up in the SuperBowl. But we will see.... Oh, and btw, Eagles on NFL Network tonight against the Seattle Seahawks. Should be a meaningless, but fun game to watch.
